Abstract

The article looks at Internet retailer Amazon.com, reporting that the company is participating in a pilot program allowing it to take payments for grocery orders under the U.S. Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), referred to as food stamps, and saying this reflects its effort to expand its customer base to include low-income consumers. It says this may affect retail firm Walmart's grocery sales.
